It looks like I am going to have to carry some kind of gun on my regular Morning hikes. I live in the appalachian Mts. and hike about a mile each AM in the woods. My farm is fairly isolated. In the past 5 years, I have had the occasion to run upon 5 bears in all. Some have been at a distance and others I have startled and they ran off tearing down bushes as they ran. Yesterday me and my two dogs were on the same trail we take everyday when we rounded a deep curve. Because of the curve we found ourselves face to face about 50 ft. from the biggest, fatest, heavyset black bear I have seen in those woods. The Bear, the dogs and I were all startled at first and nobody moved for several seconds. The dogs were even quiet as mice. We looked at the bear for several seconds and he just stood ther looking at us. He did not run. Finally he moves and starts walking. Not in the other direction but towards us. He was not charging , but just walking and sniffing. I dicided it was time to do something besides just stand there. I jumped in the air and started clapping my hands and yelling. That made the dogs start barking and running towards him. With all the commotion he turned and took of like a bullit with the dogs causiously chasing him. I called them off because I thought he might turn and smack them silly. I am sure keeping a closer eye out for those black buggers from now on when we take those trails.
